Children play with matches start a fire(x2)
Don't ever do what you're told
The old are just old
Children play with matches start a fire
Children play with fire, tend a blaze(x2)
You know where he keeps his drinks
And lots of poisons under the sink
Children play with fire, tend a blaze
(Chorus)
The world is dry and brittle and dead
It'll go up in a flash
If we mix it all together, oh what a colorful blast!
Only shout when spoken to
Curse your way through church and school
And mess around with father's power tools.(x2)
Children play beyond the "Keep Out" signs(x2)
And if the owners send you home
It's bottles, rocks, and stones
Children play beyond the "Keep Out" signs
Chorus
Children lead us to the lake of fire FIRE(x2)
And as we drive down into the flames
Maybe I'll let you hold the reigns
Children lead us to the lake of fire(x2)
Children play with matches, start a fire(x2)
Just a little gasoline and watch the people scream... Children play with matches start a fire
